On South Australia’s rugged Eyre Peninsula is a charming fishing village, so teeming with natural wonder, its impact on visitors is immediate and visceral. At first, a sense of peaceful escape and seclusion; but then, a contrasting impulse of excitement for an adventure that awaits. Thoughtfully appointed Seaside Villas provide a home from which to encounter the magic of a coastal safari: swimming with wild sea lions and dolphins, exploring delicate aquatic ecosystems, witnessing the majesty of Mother Nature at sunset, and sharing stories with some of Australia’s most gifted and passionate field guides. The journey is accented with flavours from an internationally acclaimed chef, crafted simply and skilfully from the region’s finest natural ingredients, some of which you may help forage… and catch!

You may eventually leave Baird Bay, but it will never leave you.
